Tom Cruise Needs a Publicist and Needs to Get on What MJ is Taking

Did anyone notice how subdued Michael Jackson was during his trial? Some have speculated that he was heavily drugged to keep him under control.

Tom Cruise needs some of what MJ is on too. Cruise can’t handle publicity on his own (he got rid of his publicist) and is creating a major problem for Steven Spielburg’s publicity campaign for his upcoming film “War of the Worlds.”

Instead of promoting the film, Cruise has managed to go crazy on the set of the Oprah Winfrey show, gotten into arguments with interviewers about scientology and psychiatry, and drawn all the attention to himself. Spielburg must be having kittens.

Cruise is acting like a teenager who is off his ADD/ADHD medications. It’s a major turn-off; if he doesn’t start to behave in public, some may decide that they’ve seen enough of him and his antics on TV and won’t want to pay to see him in “War of the Worlds.”

Instead of egging him on, perhaps Oprah ought to tell her friend Tom Cruise to get with the program and publicize the film instead of himself. And many are not interested in the intricacies of Scientology either.
